Is It Time to Give Zuccarello Another Try?

Found January 20, 2012 on NY Rangers Blog: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Wojtek Wolski
TEAMS: New York Rangers

Steve Zipay at Newsday wonders if it isn't time the Rangers give Mats Zuccarello another try after the All Star break..."As a forward who can be penciled into the lineup against certain teams and held out against others, Zuccarello (if his ankle is fully healed) could provide some points with the man-advantage. Worth a try. Especially because it seems spare forward Wojtek Wolski's days are numbered."Zipay adds that if nothing else it could be a great way to showcase Zuccarello before the February 27th trade deadline.Zucc gas 8g, 15a for the CT Whale this season....as Zipay says, this decision may make itself if Zucc's ankle doesn't heal soon, but before I endorse this kind of move I'd like to see if the current team can fight their way out of this. I also mentioned last night that maybe Wolski gets a real chance in the top six first....leave your thoughts in the comments section.Remember to follow me on Twitter & Facebook or e-mail me at ...

Jaromir Jagr Served as Rangers Captain Between Mark Messier and Chris Drury

Via NESN.com  |  January 21, 2012
Ryan Callahan serves as the Rangers' captain nowadays, and by donning the "C," he joins a very elite group. Prior to Callahan, it was Chris Drury who held the role, starting in 2008. Drury decided to hang up the skates, though, which paved the way for the 26-year-old Callahan to take over. Perhaps the most recognizable captain in Rangers history is Mark Messier, who...

Rangers C Richards misses practice

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  January 20, 2012
Brad Richards did not practice on Friday, but New York Rangers coach John Tortorella insisted that the center will "be fine" for Saturday's tilt against the Boston Bruins. Richards was leveled by Pittsburgh Penguins agitator Matt Cooke during Thursday's 4-1 loss and appeared to land on his back. While no tripping penalty was called, the play was reviewed by the...

Two Minutes in the Penalty Box with Chelley: It Was Fun While It Lasted

Via Ranger Nation  |  January 20, 2012
No, I’m not talking about the Rangers and their first place standing. I’m talking about Stu Bickel. You must be thinking, “huh? Surely Chelley has fallen off her rocker and spilled her coffee…”. I can assure you, I am still in my rocker with my coffee mug firmly in hand. In the Rangers’ loss in [...]

Video: Rangers React To James Dolan’s Comments

Via Ranger Nation  |  January 19, 2012
… It’s always nice when the owner has faith in you. And it seems this year James Dolan has that faith. I don’t believe in “being jinxed” like most fans do. I believe the Rangers will keep playing the way they have been and Tortorella will do anything he possibly can to keep the ship [...]

Costly Mistakes – Penguins @ Rangers Post Game Thoughts…

Via Rangers Review  |  January 20, 2012
I don’t think the score was a far characterization of how this game was played. To be totally frank, I thought for the bulk of this game the Rangers played the Pens fairly evenly. I don’t think this was the case of 1 team blowing the doors off the other. The score was, after all, tied going into the 3rd period. The difference in this game, to me, was the Rangers...

Musings – Why The Hate On Dolan?

I don’t get all this hate of James Dolan saying the Rangers are nearly contenders for the Cup. It’s not like he guaranteed anything, he just said what we all know: The Rangers are a very...

A Night For Bad News

Via The Prospect Park  |  January 21, 2012
Friday night was more about bad news than it was about outstanding performances for both New York Ranger and New York Islanders prospects. The first bit of bad news was announced before anybody even stepped on the ice as each team had bad news about first-round pick. The New York Rangers saw their 2010 first-round pick Dylan McIlrath be suspended for eight games as a result of...

Tuesday's contest was expected to be a contest between a pair of mirror images in the Rangers and Predators. While that was true, the Rangers mixed some timely offense and luck with stifling defense and stellar goaltending by Henrik Lundqvist, who earned his fourth shutout of the season and 20th in his career, to beat Nashville 3-0. Every time the Blueshirts have had to respond...

The New York Rangers won their Eastern Conference showdown Saturday with the Boston Bruins on a Marian Gaborik power-play goal with 3.6 seconds remaining in overtime. Why did they have a power play?
